                     Like us, all animals need shelter to live in. A shelter protects them from
                       heat, cold rain and enemies. Their shelter is their homes.

                     Some animals built their own homes for example birds build nests,

                       rabbits make burrow ,snake and rat live in holes.
                      Animals like lion and tiger live in caves and their home is known as
